• 6 SLICE Bacon
• 4 Hamburger Buns
• 1/2 CUP Raspberry Jalapeño Jelly (can use jelly of your choice)

• 1/4 CUP Hoisin Sauce
• 1/4 CUP Peanut Butter
• 1/2 CUP Maple Syrup (adjust as needed for preference)
• 1 TBSP Sweet Chili Sauce
• 2 TSP Soy Sauce
• 2 TSP Fish Sauce
• 1 TSP Sesame Oil

Tools

• Small Bowl
• Baking Sheet with Wire Rack
• Grill
• Spatula

FIRST STEP

Take the Fullblood Wagyu beef burger patties out of the freezer, and place them in the refrigerator 24 hours before starting this recipe. 

PREPARING THE PEANUT BUTTER SPREAD

In a small bowl, combine the hoisin sauce, peanut butter, maple syrup, sweet chili sauce, soy sauce, fish sauce, and sesame oil.

Mix until combined, and refrigerate until ready to use.

PREPARING THE BACON

Preheat the oven to 400ºF.

Place the bacon on a wire rack over a baking sheet.

Once the oven is heated, place the bacon in the oven for 10-15 minute or until it’s crispy.

Once the bacon has finished cooking, allow it to cool for 5 minutes.

Then, crumble the bacon into smaller, bite-size pieces.

Set the bacon aside until ready to use.

PREPARING THE WAGYU BEEF BURGERS

Preheat the grill to 500ºF. Meanwhile, remove the Wagyu beef burger patties from the packaging.

Lightly season the burger patties with kosher salt and black pepper.

Once the grill has heated, add the Wagyu beef burger patties to the grill.

Grill the patties for 10 minutes, flipping them over halfway through the cooking process.

Once the Wagyu beef patties have reached the desired doneness, remove them from the grill.

Add the hamburger buns to grill while it’s still hot, and toast the buns for 1-2 minutes.

Then, turn off the burners.

FINAL STEPS

Lay out the toasted bottom hamburger buns on a large plate. Slather each bottom bun with the peanut butter spread.

Next, add a grilled Wagyu beef patty to each bottom bun.

Then, add some bacon pieces and a dollop of the raspberry jalapeño jelly to each burger.

Finish each hamburger with a toasted top bun.

Serve, and enjoy!
